More in Common (Jo Cox Foundation) 2018

More in Common is a global organisation founded in the wake of the assassination of the UK MP Jo Cox in 2016. It is a global think-tank focussed on publishing research that brings communities together.

I was approached to design their report on fragmentation in Italy, which found that traditional left to right demarcations of political orientation no longer applied, and there were in fact a number of sub groups ranging between ‘open’ and ‘closed’ (something that we have seen globally - truly fascinating stuff - check out their work).

My solution was to create a new visual language to separate these sub-groups, without being pejorative or referencing traditional colours or styles associated with the old Left and Right. There were also a number of data visualisations, infographics and the work needed to be published in both Italian and English.
